Ranier, thanks a lot for the help. Now that it's Saturday, I don't have
access to that particular machine. I'll have to try your suggestion on
Monday.
In the meantime, I'm planning to set up a VPS machine this weekend, so once
I get that running and get to the point of installing Tomcat, I'll try
running make without running configure first, as you suggested.
Thanks,
Ethan
